The Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust welcomes people on different incomes to join its communities by offering a range of options for part-renting and buying homes.
The Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) is a registered housing association and care provider in Yorkshire and the North East of England. We work alongside the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) to inspire social change.
We are one of several trusts established to make a real difference. Over 110 years ago Joseph Rowntree created JRHT to provide high quality housing. He set up our parent organisation, Joseph Rowntree Foundation to understand and confront the root causes of social problems.
Derwenthorpe is now a growing, vibrant and thriving community of almost 500 homes. However, work is needed to upgrade Derwenthorpe’s roads and bring them up to the standards required for adoption by the local authority.
